The Death of Harry S. Haines,

Mr.. Harry S. Haines, one of the most
promising young men of this city, died last
evening after an illness of thirty-one DAYS.
He was only 20 years of age, just on the
threshold of manhood, and he had every
reason to expect very successful career in
life. In June he graduated with high honors
at the Lehigh University of Pennsylvania,
and came home for a short visit before
starting on a trip TO Europe, where he ex-
pected 20 spend six months Within ten
days after reaching his home he was attacked
10y fover, from which, in few days, it was
thought he had recovered. The fever re-
turned. however, and held him in its en-
brace until death came to his relief.
Mr.. Haines was noted for the nobility and
purity of his character. Possessing an unu-
sually bright mind study and thought had
maturcd it beyond his years. But, admired
as he was by those who knew him for his
character and requirements, he was par
ticularly conspicuous for rare qualities
of the heart which manifested themselves in
the home circle, and in association with his
friends. II is doubtful if he ever gave his
parents moments pain after he came to
years of discretion. He was a constant
blessing to them, and many will sorrow with
them in their loss.

BATTLING WITH A STORM.
THE TONoWANDA HAS A ROUGH
TIME OFF HATTERAS.


A Terrific Wind and High Sea-Her
Decks are Swept From Stem to
Stern By the Waves Some of Her
Rigging is Cut Away and One Man
is Hurt.
The steamship Tonawanda, Capt. w. G..
Brickley, arrived here yesterday morning
from New York She came into port with
her smoke stack and pilot house all stained
with salt water Capt. Brickley said that
she had passed through one of the severest
hurricanes that he had ever encountered.
The vessel left New York on last Wednes-
day afternoon, and mad clear weather with
strong southerly winds down to Cape Hat
teras She passed HatJeras at Z o'clock in
the evening of Friday when the barometer
suddenly commenced falling the wind be-
ing about south southeast, and showing
every indications of an approaching hurri-
cane.
The ship was kept going under forespen-
Ger and fore-staysals so as to get around
Cape Lookout At II o'clock midnight she
took the gale. the wind blowing very hard
from south southeast, and again hauling
aroundto the westward with a terrific sea.
The barometer fell to 1908 The ship was
hove to for about eight hours during the
storm. AT 3 a. m. the wind suddenly
shifted to southwest with VIC
lent squalls and fearful
sea, which proved that the ship was in the
centre of a revolving hurricane. Capt.
Brickley gradually got the ship around on
the starboard tack heading off shore. The
ship being SO light she would not steer well,
and at times her head was away down in
the trough of the sea with her propeller
clear out of water.
The seas swept over her in rapid success
sion, carrying away everything movable on
deck. 1t also carried away one of the
shrouds of the forerigging; the gaffs were
blown clear out of the bolts. Another ter
rifle sea was shipped which carried away
rails, mainStanchionS after companion
ways and after pinnacle, smashing III the
skylights of the engine-room and putting
out the lights aud leaving the engine-room in
total darkness. Chas, Austin, seaman was
washed across the deck several times, and
his legs were badly crushed and bruised.
After blowing away the fore-spencer, the
peak of the gail was dashed down to the
boom, and then a network of ropes was
placed around the mainsail SO as to keep
her head up to the sea. The wind again
hauled around to the westward, and after
4 a. m. it gradually commenced TO subside,
and later on the weather became clearer.
The captain says that the ship behaved
splendidly, and Us each succeeding sea

will be remembered as having, for years,
run on the line between this port and Phia-

cYcLoNIc DISTURBANCE.
Cool Weather, High Winds, and Per
haps Big Cyclone for To-Day.


The maximum temperature yesterday
was So, the average 81 being L above the
normal. The temperature in the cotton re-
| gion at all the stations was decidedly lower,
save at Smithville, which reported 1922. 1t
was also low in all the districts, save Gal
weston, 81 stations there reporting an
average of 9S'. A cold wave is still hover
ing i'll the northwest and the upper lake
region. Cheyenne reported the low tenn
perature of 4S', and nearly all stations in
that section report temperatures in the
neighborhood of 50' Rains have fallen in
the New England, Middle and South At
| lantic States, and the lower and upper lake
regions. New York city reported rainfall
| OF OF inches from to 10o'clock and Phila-
/ delphia I.20 inches.
| The map issued by the signal service this
| morning showed three decided areas of low
pressure. The one that was central over
the lake region has moved slightly to east
ward, and centred last night in the vicinity
OF Cleveland, o. The one in the Rio Grande
valley has remained stationary, but
| the ono which was off Key West
has moved slightly northward, and
is now is the vicinity of Titusville,
Fla, OFF the Florida coast. At 10 o'clock
last night the wind was blowing there at
the rate of "a miles an hour from the north,
a decrease in velocity of miles since 3
o'clock. At Key West the highest velocity
was 80 miles at 3 o'clock and "a miles at 10
O'Clock from the northwest.
The barometer at this station was but
slightly below the normal yesterday morn
ing, and indicated no approach of the
storm until about noon, when the mercury
began to fall AT 3 p. m. the barometer
read %. 50 inches, fall of .0S since noon,
and at that time the following message was
received from Washington.
Hoist cautionary signal. Cyclone central off
the East Florida coast, apparently moving
north Dangerous northeast gales are Indicated
for the North Atlantic coast
The apparent course of the storm is
northward. 1t is advancing very slowly
and probably will not reach Savannah till
noon or later to-day. ANY way high north
east winds may be expected.
Ii the low area now prevailing in the gulf
should move northeasterly at a more rapid
rate than the cyclone, the two would be apt
to merge into each other and the result would
be terrific winds in the vicinity of Hatteras
The low area, central over the lake region,
may also have its effect upon the cyclone,
unless it moved rapidly to the eastward last
night. There was decided area of high
pressure in the Northwest, which will prob
ably force the low area of the lake region to
the eastward and if that happens, it will
have tendency TO keep this cyclonic dis
turbance in this section for some days.
The indications for to-day are for local
rains and stationary temperature.

Suggestions About Bilbo Canal and

DEATH OF A PROMINENT CITIZEN
Mr. William Cantwell Passes Away
A Sketch of His Life.


A Sketch of His Life.
Mr. William Cantwell died at his resi-
dence on Habersham street, near Harris,
yesterday morning, in the SD year of his
age. Mr.. Cantwel has been resident of
this city for number of years, and he was
well known in the community and univer-
sally respected. He came to this city about
1869, and soon after his arrival here he was
appointed to position in the post office In
this position he remained through the sue
cessive administrations but he lost it dur
ing the last years of Republican rule. He
was very efficient officer, and his record
in the department is q credit to his memory
At one time Mr.. Cantwell engaged in
politics in New York city, and he became
quite prominent as a leader of the local
Democratic party there. He was member
OF the National Convention that nominated
Horatio Seymour for President, and he has
at other times been placed in prominent
positions. Mr.. Cantwell joined the Catho-
lie Knights of America in 1879, and for the
last seven years he has been Recording
Secretary of Branch No. IS. The Catholic
Knights will attend the funeral in body
this afternoon. 1t is seldom that they turn
out on such occasions, but their appreciation
of the merits of their deceased brother was
so great that they felt their attendance was
an honor that was due his memory.

The steamer Santee arrived in port on
Saturday, says the Ne,oS and Courier,
bringing, probably, the very latest news
| from the flooded districts along North and
| South Santee One of the officers of the
steamer said that on North Santee, from
Fawn Hill to Collins Landing, the freshet
had broken through the rice banks and in
undated the fields. These fields were, how
ever, owned by colored planters who
farmed on a small scale and were able
TO oppose 10 the floods only such en-
bankments as would scarcely resist the
ordinary food&n the river. Their fields
were consequently overlooked entirely,
but it was impossible TO say whether
there would be serious damage done
TO the harvest. The damage would largely
depend he said, on the length OF time the
crop remained under water, which, on Fri
day night, had fallen four inches, and had
probably on Saturday fallen two feet. Tire
same condition OF affairs, he said, probably
existed on South Santee, where the planters
were, however, better prepared to escape
any very serious injury. But there was no
doubt that the water had overrun the plan
tations in this latter section. A freshet
affecting the North Santea wodld necessarily
affect the South river, but here the same
would apply; the damage would depend Oh
the length OF time the fields were flooded"

Buying Up the Rice Crops.

A gentleman from over the river stated
yesterday that agents, said to represent
Charleston houses, are now travelling
through the rice growing sections, engaging
in advance, the growing crop of small
planters. On Okeetee and Chichessee rivers
there are a number of planters who raise
from 100 to 1000 bushels of rice, which
with few bags of cotton is their money
crop. The rice is generally upland and
is preferred to tide water" rice as seed
As there will necessarily be large demand
for good seed rice, there is an opening for
considerable speculation in that line.
